All in...Another wonderful post as usual Patrick!!!<br /><br />All indigenous cultures around the globe that have access to a clay soil, seems to have developed (and perfected) some form of "earthen plaster and mass wall" modality. Be that Diné (proper name for Navajo) Hopi, Zuni, or countless others that had been building with earth and plastering with same for millenia before the Europeans during and after 1490's besieged North and South America. <br /><br />Just about any of the Cobb-Clom-Tabya-Adobe-Bousillage-Colombage-Taipa-Bajareque-土壁 (Doheki), 土塀 (Dobei) and the list rambles on...received a finish of clay and/or clay-lime mixtures. Any student of your fine art would benefit from starting their studies into the many (and broad) vernaculars.<br /><br />Warm Regards,<br /><br />jJay C.
